commit 5c62e4739107a7bb167c31c0f353f1ff8a150f2d
Author: Peter Müller <peter.mueller(a)link38.eu>
Date:   Thu Jan 3 18:05:40 2019 +0100

    prevent kernel address space leak via dmesg or /proc files
    
    Enable runtime sysctl hardening in order to avoid kernel
    addresses being disclosed via dmesg (in case it was built
    in without restrictions) or various /proc files.
    
    See https://kernsec.org/wiki/index.php/Kernel_Self_Protection_Project/Recommended_Settings
    for further information.
